SUMMARY:#SpillTheTea: 2026 Ecosystem Forecast (with Startup Portugal)
DESCRIPTION:The Concept: Spill The Tea \n​We invite experts from within and outside our community to host a quick (but value-packed) presentation on their zone of genius. Normally\, the structure is a short arrival (tea is served\, of course!)\, followed by a focused 25-minute presentation and a 10-minute community Q&A. The idea is simple: to skill swap and make our ecosystem stronger together. \n​The Forecast: Strategic Intelligence for 2026 \n​Every founder needs to know where the market is going\, not just where it is today. We are thrilled to welcome Ivanoel Rodrigues\, Ecosystem Booster at Startup Portugal and Aspiring VC at AngelsWay\, to share his unique\, forward-looking perspective. As someone who supports over 130 incubators and invests in early-stage ventures\, Ivanoel has a key eye on the next rising wave of startups. \n​Ivanoel will lead a strategic discussion tailored for our scale-up community: \n​“The 2026 Ecosystem Forecast: What’s Next for Portuguese Startups?” \n​Key Strategic Questions Addressed: \n\n\n​What major trends or sectors are on the rise for 2026? \n\n\n​What is the single biggest strategic pivot founders need to make now to succeed next year? \n\n\n​How can our founders best leverage the infrastructure being built by Startup Portugal and other national entities?
